Yamaha GL1 BL Guitalele 6-string guitar-ukulele black

General

This is the black edition of the unique Yamaha guitar-ukulele hybrid. The GL1-BL combines the size of a tenor ukulele with the 6 string neck of a classical guitar, making this instrument, in fact, perfect for small children. The Guitalele is also a perfect travel guitar for any guitarist. It comes with its own gig bag, so you can easily take it with you.

Characteristics of the Yamaha GL1-BL
This matte black Yamaha GL1 Guitalele has a body of meranti wood with a top of spruce. The 48mm-wide neck is made of nato (similar to mahogany), and has an 18-fret rosewood fretboard. This combination of wood types guarantees a guitar with full, warm sound, despite its small size.

Guitalele Tuning
The GL1-BL has six nylon strings and is tuned in ADGCEA, which is standard ukulele tuning with the addition of the low A and D strings. This means you can easily play along with other guitarists, who can use standard tuning with a capo on the fifth fret. This also means that it's easy for any guitarist to cross over to the Yamaha GL1-BL Guitalele!
